for the 15 inch NF evo coil i am yet to get a true indication of it's settings but i've been told that mode 5 works and a gain of 5 works also but i would run it in NULL so it'll pick up smaller and larger targets and not favour either..
They also told me THS A of 60 ish works well on it
In addition to that for my sadie 8x6 advantage coil i use the following settings
MODE 1
Gain 8
THS A 35
THS B -2 bias usually about 47-48
MGB as low as it'll let me go to balance the detector usually in heavily mineralised soils anywhere from 118-135 varying alot!!!
MGB you basically listen to...
G'day from what i understand THS A is about 30-40 for smaller coils and 50-60 for bigger coils threshold volume basically but it also impacts on depth of the detector coil
gain doesn't mean much it makes very low difference so just run a stable gain and dont pay too much attention to it
THS B...
That's right.. it took me and my mate an entire year to finally find our own gold patch.
An entire year when we started off we knew nothing.
We had no idea what ground where to go or rules ect...
But an entire year of research has paid off...
Now we're confident were onto the gold! we both...
G'day everyone after going through multiple detectors i think i've actually found a really decent one i want to hang onto!!!
The QED PL3.
I've been amazed at how great these detectors actually are!
They are capable of picking up sub gram gold but at the same time also take over a wide variety...
G'day everyone so recently i bought a NF EVO coil 15 inch..
I'll be using it for patch hunting but i have no idea how good they are at detecting sub gram nuggets either.
I know theres no perfect all rounder coil.. but i'd be interested in seeing what the test results are on what this coil can...
G'day from Geraldton WA.
I've been into prospecting all my life on and off but only recently started going for the shiny stuff ever since i found a metal detector in my dads shed (X terra)
Starting off with no knowledge i've come a long way and finally onto the yellow stuff!
Anyways my names...
Are you allowed to prospect around or in old mines? Talking shallow workings not shafts....
Hand tools only obviously and a detector
Just curious myself but Im asking for a friend as he doesnt use a computer and I actually want confirmation on an answer before I give him one
